Marth Blazes Onto Super Smash Bros. Roster

He's handsome and has a way with the ladies. At least that's what these latest screenshots of Marth in Super Smash Bros. for the Wii U would have you believe.

New images announcing Marth as the latest fighter to join the roster, bringing the total count of confirmed fighters to 18. The Fire Emblem: Awakening star has appeared in two Smash Bros. games previously, so it's not all that surprising to see the sword-slinging hero return once more on the Wii U and 3DS.

As you can see in the screenshots below, Marth is more than capable of taking on all comers, whether it's other armed combatants like Link or more melee prone fighters like the Wii Fit trainer. Marth's also a bit of a lady killer, as you can see Princess Peach has her eyes on the blue-haired hero instead of her mustachioed man Mario.

You can see more screens below and over on the official Smash Bros. site. Super Smash Bros. will be out on the Wii U, 3DS and 2DS sometime in 2014.
